    Are We Running Out Of Good Topics?

    I know I'am, Im mean, there's some pretty good threads that keep going for weeks or months but some are pretty lame (not mentioning anyone).... is anyone else running out of good thread topics?

    I know for a fact this forum will never really run out of steam. The last forum I belonged to shut down because of a lack of interest so I know when things look bad. You log on here and there are about 20 users active- at FFS (old forum) it was just the admin and a few mods (like myself). New posts were a rarity and when it happened it was usually spam. Personally I think EOFF is no where near the end of its life cycle.

    Yeah. We get too many newbies everyday, for EoFF to be running out of steam anytime soon.

    I still haven't figured out the schematics behind a good thread topic. Seeing as we have anti spam rules, it's not 'what instigates a high post count', because getting ppl to spam a thread != good thread. It's not something general, because I've tried that route.

    I do have one last opinion, but I'll keep my mouth shut about that

    Most threads have been done before. There are usually a few good topics each month.

    Some thread subjects here at eoff are just dead boring, while others are ok, or even mildly amusing. Some tend to be repetetive, while others are absurd and original. I guess I'll sum up by saying that we have a big mix of subjects here at eoff. Running out of good topics? Nah, not yet.

    Since I've been here, the activity on EoFF could have been described by the function:
    f(x) = sin(x)

    Right now, we are somewhere between p and 2p. It will get better sometime soon.

    Maybe the rest of us have just been out of good replies!

    I have an answer to everyone who needs new topics: send HOOTERS money so he can get drunk more often.

    Lots of new topics.

    This place runs out of good topics just like I run out of good coffee.

    Yeah, like stuff is repeated every so few monthes. Its like playing the same video game that came out a few years ago, it just gets old after many times of play.
